The chips are down and there's only one thing Jim can to to save the day: HE GOTTA GET THE JUNGLE (hic) DRUNK! Jump on for (hic) humongous battles filled with lasers and (hic) Beast-Men and Hawkmen and Snake-Ladies and seriously, Jim gets the jungle (hic) drunk.
This issue went by fast, but I think that's just because I was eager to read as much as I could as fast as I could. I'm pretty bummed that this series is over, solely because the characters are so easy going and loveable. Jungle Jim the miniseries is over, but here's hoping we get some more of this coolness!

Everything is resolved with few surprises and rather one-sided. It seems brief too, but perhaps I just wanted to spend more time with these characters. Tobin has created a fun universe with an obscure hero that has been a complete delight. I'm hoping we'll see more of Jungle Jim. It's been one of the best surprises in comic books this year.

As it is Jungle Jim is a fun bit of pulp nonsense but there wasn't a whole lot beneath the surface this time around. Maybe the next arc will bring something else. I still just don't know how to feel about it. It's not funny or light-hearted like my favorite comedy books (Howard the Duck and Squirrel Girl) but it's not dark enough or deep enough to engage me on a more intellectual or emotional level (like Postal or Imperium). It's in this confused middle ground where I don't know how to feel about it and I don't know how to relate to it. It's good, it's okay even, but, for me, it's not much more than that.
